Every group masks IRQ4 to IRQ6 in I_MASK and polls I_STAT itself with interrupts off. Two counter reads in a row on root counter 2 are 4 system clock cycles apart, so a histogram of read values samples the counter every 4 cycles.[^run][^h-rc2]Every group masks IRQ4 to IRQ6 in I_MASK and polls I_STAT itself with interrupts off.
